My hosts John and Bon were great. I was arriving on the late night flight and they were willing to meet me late at night but even better they were willing to allow my friend who was already in Bangkok do the checkin. Both John and Bon were quick to respond to emails and they even allowed us to stay an extra day. The only difference between the pictures and my actual apartment was that my Apartment had an upgraded TV from the picture. Overall the apartment was great. It was very quiet and I would stay here again. I never used public transit, because I could take a taxi almost anywhere in Bangkok for under $3.00 US.
